Who was studied 6,563 European ancestry female cases, 219,656 European ancestry female controls.
The effect
The reported allele is G; the catalogue records no effect size
; p = 1 × 10−15.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 94% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.32 — in an intron of PBX2.
What each result means
A/ANo copy of the version the research linked to Cervical cancer. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Cervical cancer. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GTwo copies of the version the research linked to Cervical cancer. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2856437
What is rs2856437?
rs2856437 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PBX2 gene. Published research associates it with cervical cancer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs2856437 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Cervical Cancer. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs2856437 mean I will get this?
No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.
Where does the information about rs2856437 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2020, PMID:32887889. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
